This is how we roll...

Mommy's minivan-



My favorite color and scented with a Coconut Bay gel car refresher.

Since last year,
it had been the "new kid on our lot"


'til Daddy went and got the

'o 9
Toyota Tacoma




as seen parked in the cushie front parking spot he has to park in because now his truck is to big to park out back stole from me. No hard feelings, of course. ;)




And the littles?




They roll in booster seat passports...

duly "stamped" (and in some cases, peeled and re-"stamped") with stickers and name tags from every doctor, dentist, camp, class, and event we have visited in the last year.















How do you roll?

Fun! I love the new truck! Man, how does he rate? ;)

My kids always put stickers and stuff all over their car seats too. And they remembered where each and every one came from!

why is it the men always have to have the latest model of truck? my hubby is that way with the chevy silverado. i have an older tahoe with toys all over the place. i keep taking them out and the little one brings 4 more out each time we leave the house. the worse is when you find a sippy cup of old milk- GROSS!!!!

gina said...

Jean that is the very reason only water was allowed in sippy cups at my house. A positive result of this rule? I have four girls who LOVE water- and choose it 19 times out of 20 when asked what they want to drink. :)

The thing I see wrong with that whole new truck picture is that it's RAINING and mama was stuck in back...men and their toys!

What gorgeous girlies you have!
Omigosh, that truck puts my husband's smoking oil '91 Civic to shame! ;)

I wish I had a nice big car like yours!

At first I wasn't thrilled with a big RED minivan, but now when I
walk out into a crowded parking lot and even my 4-year-old can spot our van I am happy with it's bright color!
What beautiful girls you have!! Love your blog!!!

gina said...

Loni- oddly enough there is always at least one other red Town&Country in any given parking lot we are in and we always seem to head to the wrong one.

Mattie- exactly. Although to be honest. We COULD enter the house directly in the back too (hubby used to) BUT it's an entry through the basement and it's COBWEB-y. pout, pout.

Jan said...

Cute post, I raised my girls, too, to be un-pink, love that term.

tommie said...

The girls are too cute.

Jean said...

Gina- Got it. water, water, water! Good idea. After all, I live in the desert.

Stephanie said...

Here you are showing off your great cars and all I can think of is: Aww, they have rain! It's 108 here! I want rain!

gina said...

Stephanie- ah, the grass is always greener, it rained 90% of our summer this year. (at least it feels that way)
